Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The supervisory attentional system is responsible for selecting the appropriate schema control unit when there is no routine procedure available. It is a top-down attentional control mechanism that can direct attention to important stimuli and override automatic responses. Option A is incorrect because the somatic marker hypothesis is a theory of how emotions influence decision-making. Option B is incorrect because utilization behavior refers to a behavior in which an object or stimulus in the environment triggers an automatic response, without conscious awareness or control. Option D is incorrect because source encoding refers to the process of encoding the source of information within memory.
